Johnson said it was common for an animal to cause a short in the power by getting between two of the 12,000-volt power lines leading to the transformer.
Customer calls indicated that the outage was between Sixth and 14th streets and between Ohio and New Hampshire streets, he said.
"If it is there, it is in a lot of pieces," he said.
